Types of storage racking we supply in Adelaide
Rackman Australia is your one-stop destination for industrial and commercial racking systems. Here’s an overview of what we offer – and where each system fits best:
Selective pallet racking
The most commonly used racking in warehouses and logistics facilities. Selective racking provides direct access to every pallet and is easy to configure to suit your available height, aisle width, and forklift type. Ideal for general warehousing, 3PL, manufacturing, and food storage operations.
Longspan shelving
Longspan shelving is perfect for hand-loaded items, bulky cartons, archives, and parts storage. It bridges the gap between light-duty office shelving and full pallet racking. Common in stockrooms, maintenance workshops, auto garages, and healthcare settings.
Each level can be decked with mesh, steel panels, or timber, and adjusted to suit your load height.
Cantilever racking
For long, awkward items like timber, steel bar, pipes, or sheeting. Cantilever racking has no front uprights, allowing easy side loading. Available in single- or double-sided configurations, and scalable in arm length, weight rating, and height.
This system is frequently used in manufacturing, construction, plumbing, and joinery supply industries.
Vertical racking (A-frame)
Perfect for upright storage of long, slim materials such as conduit, aluminium extrusions, timber lengths, or window frames. Vertical racking takes up less floor space and makes sorting and accessing inventory much easier.
We recommend vertical racking for facilities with limited width or where quick access to individual lengths is key.
Stillage and pallet cages
Need to store loose items or mixed components? We supply storage racking tailored for stillage cages and pallet cages. These systems are useful for scrap, returns, bulk parts, and even waste segregation.
Many customers pair our pallet and stillage cages with longspan or selective racks to maximise footprint and improve material flow.
Mezzanine racking and multi-tier systems
We can design mezzanine-supported racking or multi-level longspan shelving structures to double your storage area. Ideal for parts distribution centres, large retail stockrooms, and archive-heavy environments.
Our mezzanine systems include staircases, balustrades, gates and floor loads engineered to code.
Benefits of smart storage racking systems
A well-planned storage racking solution isn’t just about stacking items vertically. It’s a strategic investment in safety, productivity, and operational efficiency. Here’s what businesses in Adelaide gain with Rackman’s racking systems:
Better use of space
Space is one of your most valuable assets. Our racking solutions help you reclaim floor space by using vertical height efficiently. Whether you’re in a compact backroom or a sprawling warehouse, we’ll help you fit more inventory without the need for expansion.
Many customers report up to 50% space savings when switching from floor stacking to structured racking. For growing businesses, this can delay the need for relocation or costly fitouts.
Faster access and smoother operations
With a racking layout that matches your picking method – whether it’s FIFO, zone picking, or wave – staff can locate, access, and replenish stock more efficiently. Racking systems also make it easier to identify stock levels at a glance and avoid errors caused by clutter or confusion.
Adding accessories like parts storage bins or labelling systems further boosts picking accuracy and productivity.
Improved safety and compliance
Our racking systems comply with Australian Standard AS 4084:2023 and are installed to WorkSafe guidelines. We incorporate key safety features such as:
- ***Anchored base plates
- ***Beam safety clips
- ***Load signage
- ***Optional end-of-aisle guards and guide rails
These systems reduce risk to staff and help meet workplace OHS obligations.
Built for future growth
Every system we install is modular and scalable. As your business evolves, we can add more bays, increase beam levels, or reconfigure your layout. For seasonal storage or high-turnover stock, we also offer removable accessories like mesh decks, timber shelves, or mesh decking Adelaide panels.
If you’re looking for flexibility, we also supply high-quality secondhand storage racking in Adelaide, perfect for startups or temporary setups.
Our process and ongoing support
Implementing storage racking is more than just buying some shelves. Rackman Australia offers end-to-end support to ensure your system is installed safely and efficiently, fit for long-term use:
We begin with a detailed conversation about your inventory, workflow, and site conditions. Then we conduct a site visit to measure your space, check ceiling height, slab condition, forklift access, and any constraints like vents or support columns.
We create a CAD layout tailored to your requirements – including racking types, bay numbers, aisle widths, and safety zones. We consider seismic ratings, egress pathways, and compliance with AS 4084. If an engineer sign-off is required, we’ll handle that too.
Our professional installers complete the job with minimal disruption. Every rack is anchored, levelled, and tested. For large or active warehouses, we offer staged installations and weekend scheduling.
If you’re combining multiple rack types – such as pallet racking, cantilever racking, and mezzanine floors – we design for integration. We can connect systems, coordinate safety zones, and ensure efficient material flow between areas.
We provide compliance documentation on completion, and offer annual safety inspections in line with AS 4084. We can train your staff on identifying rack damage, safe load practices, and daily use guidelines.
If a rack is damaged by a forklift or overloaded, we can supply replacement parts and perform repairs quickly. We also retrofit extra protection like guide rails and column guards to reduce repeat incidents.
All our systems are modular. If you expand or move facilities, we can adjust your racking – add bays, raise beam levels, or relocate components. For short-term needs or budget constraints, we also offer secondhand racking that’s certified and compatible with your layout.
Additional storage systems and accessories
In addition to core racking styles, we supply a wide range of supporting systems and accessories that can complete your storage fitout:
- ***Tyrespan: Store tyres vertically or angled with Tyrespan racks designed for easy access and safe stacking.
- ***Board racking: Perfect for timber, MDF sheets or plasterboard stored flat and safely supported.
- ***Cable racking: Drum-style racks that let you store and dispense large reels of electrical or communication cabling.
- ***Parts storage: Combine your racking with bin shelving, louvers, and cabinets for storing fittings, fasteners and consumables.
All systems are customisable and can be integrated into your existing layout or built as part of a fresh warehouse design.
